Lowe Registry Cleaner removal instructions

What is Lowe Registry Cleaner?

Developers promote Lowe Registry Cleaner as an application used to clean Windows Registry: to remove unwanted/obsolete items, thereby improving system stability and performance. This may seem to be a legitimate program, however, it is classified as a potentially unwanted app (PUA), since most users do not install it intentionally. Research shows that developers stealthily promote Lowe Registry Cleaner through various adware-type applications. After system infiltration, these adware-type apps download, install, and execute Lowe Registry Cleaner, which then performs a system scan and delivers a list of registry errors that "must be fixed".

Lowe Registry Cleaner supposedly allows users to make their computers more stable, increase performance, provide automatic backups, use the app in 17 different languages and a portable version, manage executable files launched on a Windows startup, provide the ability to remove traces of already deleted software, and much more. In fact, the installed version is just a free trial. To use the features offered, users must purchase the 'full version'. Note that many such apps allow users to perform free scans or other actions, however, to fix any issues and perform more advanced functions, they are encouraged to purchase the software. Apps that are installed unintentionally in this way often display fake scan results. The results are simply generated to trick users into purchasing so-called 'full' versions. Even if purchased, these apps often do not provide any real value. It is possible that Lowe Registry Cleaner is just another one of these rogue apps. Lowe Registry Cleaner is installed inadvertently via adware and together with various browser hijackers. Having these apps installed can lead to unwanted redirects, intrusive ads, and recording of browsing-related data.

Many applications are distributed using "bundling" method. Some other examples are Power PC Care 2018, Advance PC Protector, and PC Health Aid. Typically, potentially unwanted apps are promoted as 'useful tools' and full of features, however, these apps are designed only to generate revenue for the developers and provide none of the features promised (or any other value). In summary, having PUAs installed might lead to various issues.

How did potentially unwanted applications install on my computer?

In some cases (including Lowe Registry Cleaner), potentially unwanted apps can be downloaded from their official websites, however, people usually install them accidentally or inadvertently together with other, regular software (when the "bundling" method is used) or through intrusive advertisements. Bundling is used to trick people into installing PUAs together with other chosen programs. Developers hide unwanted apps in "Custom", "Advanced" options, and other similar parts of the installation/download set-ups. Information about the inclusion of PUAs in installation/download set-ups is not provided. Furthermore, many users skip installation steps and leave settings unchanged, thus leading to inadvertent installations of unwanted apps. In this case, it is unknown exactly how Lowe Registry Cleaner is installed, however, it is likely to be via adware (rogue software that is often installed through "bundling").

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download software using official and trustworthy sources (websites). Avoid using third party software downloaders (and installers), peer-to-peer networks (such as torrents), and so on. When installing software (especially freeware), check "Custom", "Advanced" settings and deselect unwanted offers to install additional products. Remember, intrusive ads usually seem legitimate, but some redirect to untrustworthy websites (gambling, pornography, adult dating, and so on). If you encounter these redirects or ads, check installed plug-ins, extensions, and add-ons on your browser, and programs on your computer. Remove all unwanted entries immediately. If your computer is already infected with PUAs, we recommend running a scan with
Spyhunter for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
